01/27/22 • 24 min

Matt and Lauren Gray have been serving together in some ministry capacity for almost 20 years, from leading worship, serving in kids ministry, to now the lead pastor and pastor’s wife role. Even though both are Tennessee natives, their path to ministry was not what they had planned. From launching a church plant core group in the middle of a pandemic to merging with a 210-year-old existing church, they are experiencing the Lord's faithfulness all along the way. And this episode is that story. Lean in and enjoy!

Mike Cosper

The Rise and Fall of Mars Hill proved to be the hottest podcast of the year for many. It was discussed around the world in churches, barber shops, coffee bars, and front porches. In this episode, Mike makes it personal, talks about the toll the pod had on his life, what he believes the church has to learn from stories like these, and how evangelicals can find their way back. This one is so good you're going to want to listen to it twice. Saddle up and dig in, folks.
